He has absolutely no perceptive skills whatsoever.
The idiot managed to misinterpret numerous social situations and he keeps "observing" such situations because he finds people and society so confusing!
He doesn't understand basic human motivations, he is utterly naive, he is socially inept and tries to reaffirm his self-confidence through all the apparently self-satisfied hmmmmmssss which are transparent attempts to project himself as some social observer and hedonist when he is nothing of the sort.
He has less well developed social skills and perception skills than Sophie.
He has appalling difficulty just having a conversation with someone and not destroying it with some idiotic piece of conversation-killing, wandering, self-indulgent rhetoric.
I have yet to hear him make one insightful comment, meanwhile Bea delivers a torrent.
He is one very confused and inept person.
It's called benefit of the doubt Flossie.... and despite what you say, whether by design, or by accident, he played a good game for the first couple of weeks. Then, with each non eviction, first complacency set in, then smugness, and then Bea....!
This is delusional and a complete misinterpretation of what happened.
Freddie, because of his inability to converse with other people through including intricate details of his showering schedule etc in much of his comments, was isolated, shunned, picked on and bullied. As a result he picked up a sympathy vote as all such people do.
There was no intent in his position, he hated being picked on and did he periodically did his damnedest to engage with others, but with little success. That is NOT playing a good game, that was just being inept and a victim and the game played him, he was nothing more than a seed in the wind of the social dynamics.
I am always stunned by people not understanding the reasons they have for liking people.
The new more confident Freddie and the old isolated and bullied Freddie are the same person and you shouldn't resent the fact with support from people like Bea his confidence has increased.
Bea has been 100% good for Freddie's personal development. She has stopped him spewing bollocks for the most part and brought him into contact with some real insights and social skills.
